Question: 2 . 1 0 A Rankine cycle operates with inlet steam at 7 5 bar and ( 3 2 0 ^ { circ

2.10 A Rankine cycle operates with inlet steam at 75 bar and \(320^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\), condensing at \(50^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\), and generates 250 MW of power. The cycle features a single stage of reheat that returns the steam to \(320^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\). A closedtype feedwater heater receives bled steam at the reheat pressure and cascades the drains back to the condenser. The high-pressure turbine has a polytropic efficiency of \(91\%\), while the low-pressure turbine operates at \(93\%\) efficiency. The pump operates isentropically. Calculate (a) the mass flow rate of the steam at the turbine inlet in kilogram per second. (b) the cycle efficiency, (c) the cycle work ratio. Use \(\mathrm{TTD}=-2.5^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\)
